Step-by-Step Instructions for Cinnamon Apple Bread
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour an 8.5 x 4.5-inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until evenly mixed.
  3. In your mixer, beat the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition until creamy and well combined.
  5. Gradually mix in half of the flour mixture and half of the milk, blending gently until just combined.
  6. In a separate bowl, combine chopped apples, light brown sugar, and ground cinnamon until apples are coated.
  7. Spoon half of the batter into the prepared pan, layer half of the apple mixture, and swirl lightly.
  8. Repeat with remaining batter and apples, creating beautiful layers in your loaf.
  9. Sprinkle a cinnamon-sugar topping over the final layer of batter.
  10. Bake for 45-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  11. Cool in pan for 15-20 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to glaze.
